Tan Tian, who was beside me, stood up, a flicker of emotion passing through his eyes.
"It's over."
I responded with a quiet hum and nodded. It truly was over. This was the means by which Wraithshade had survived, but now Yuna Ji had cut off that path, burying both him and The Dark Banquet's hopes, as well as the chance to open the domain of the Emperors Yan and Huang and replicate their life's work within.
Despair was written all over Wraithshade's eyes. He helplessly collapsed to the ground, silently watching Yuna Ji, who was smiling atop the platform.
All around, skeletons wielding weapons had already surrounded him. Yuna Ji looked on coldly, turned, raised her hand, and slowly lowered it.
In an instant, weapons stabbed toward Wraithshade's body.
Amidst the chaos, Wraithshade had completely given up resisting, letting the blades fall upon him again and again. His eyes seemed to have lost all light, as if he could see nothing at all.
Once a person's will is destroyed, they may as well be dead, like a walking corpse. I glanced at Tan Tian beside me, his eyes fixed on Wraithshade, with no intention of intervening.
Just then, I suddenly sensed something strange coming from beneath us. I immediately floated up and looked over. On the wall, a door appeared. As the door opened, Dark Power surged in.
With a whoosh and a thunderous roar, Wraithshade floated up and shot toward us, brandishing his long spike. He broke through a group of giant eagle knights, charging straight toward the open door, heedless of the rain of arrows.
